[PATCH v2 2/2] ocfs2: bound-check dir entries in the inline-data re-validation scan
From: Zhan Xusheng
Date: Mon Aug 10 2026 - 22:44:19 EST
ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_id() re-scans the inline data area the same way
ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_el() re-scans a directory block, and is missing the
same two bounds:
for (i = 0; i < i_size_read(inode) && i < offset; ) {
de = (struct ocfs2_dir_entry *)(data->id_data + i);
if (le16_to_cpu(de->rec_len) < OCFS2_DIR_REC_LEN(1))
break;
i += le16_to_cpu(de->rec_len);
}
ocfs2_validate_inode_block() keeps i_size inside the inline area:
if (le16_to_cpu(data->id_count) >
ocfs2_max_inline_data_with_xattr(sb, di))
if (le64_to_cpu(di->i_size) > le16_to_cpu(data->id_count))
and that area runs to the end of the inode block, so for a full inline
directory data->id_data + i_size is the end of di_bh->b_data. A bogus
rec_len leaves i in the last OCFS2_DIR_REC_LEN(1) - 1 bytes of it, and
de->rec_len, at byte offset 8 within the entry, is then read past the
block.
The emit loop below hands i_size_read(inode) to ocfs2_check_dir_entry(),
which refuses both an entry that close to the end and one whose rec_len
runs past it. Apply the same two bounds to the re-validation scan, reading
i_size once into a local as ocfs2_check_dir_entry() takes it as @size.
Unlike the extent case there is no mask to corrupt here: an unbounded i
only sets ctx->pos past i_size, which ends the readdir early rather
than moving it to the wrong place.
